Xbox One X er den kraftigste konsol der nogensinde er blevet lanceret, og Microsoft har haft meget travlt med at bevise præcis hvor stor en forskel de ekstra hestekræfter kan have for din spiloplevelse. Men for én spiludvikler, der tidligere har arbejdet meget tæt sammen med Microsoft, så er maskinens hestekræfter stadig intet imod hvad en PC kan udrette. De mener nemlig at en Xbox One X er tilsvarende en standard gaming-computer.
Faktisk siger Crytek, at Xbox One X specifikt er blevet designet til at takle 4K-gaming, og at der naturligvis er nogle kompromisser associeret med at nå dette mål. Cryteks Product Manager, Collin Bishop har sagt følgende til GamingBolt:
"Shortcuts are a way of life, but if we look at the strategy behind the Xbox, we can see a console that was engineered to tackle specifically 4K gaming. Most games will squeeze every last bit of performance out of the hardware, so I expect trade-offs between optimization and the hardware. Fortunately, the engineers also allowed the developers to access the scaling and checkerboarding rendering to future-proof the console even further."
"The Xbox One X is very comparable to the standard gaming PC on the GPU end. It will be on the CPU end that you will find the PC to still be outshining the console. This will always be the scenario given you can trade out and customize the hardware."
"We can look at the AMD Jaguar CPU and how this lines up to the Ryzen line; however, at first glance, we see that the performance is roughly one-third or one-half."
Tror du også at Xbox One X kommer til at løbe ind i kompromisser, alle sine hestekræfter til trods?
